Hi All,
Connected the new C5 to a battery this morning and surprise surprise not a flicker of life.I cracked open the control box and
found that someone had got at it !!
Instead of replacing a couple of components the last owner has been cutting and splicing his little heart out .
The upshot of which is
...R1 is blown...now replaced with a spare i had.
...D1 is blown ... part ordered at Maplins for collection tomorrow ..(Many thanks to RadioMarty for listing the Maplin part no.)
... Voltage regulator Lm342 is suspect, i can't check voltages until i have fitted D1.. but i do have a spare if needed..
THE PROBLEM IS ...the previous owner has been cutting and moving wires from the relay and i don't know where they should be !
The relay numbers are as follows ...
"85" bottom/middle position .. has been cut and goes nowhere !!
"30" left side/half way up.. goes to the positive 12V supply ..that's looks fine !
" ?" Right side/half way up .. VERY large black negative to the right hand-side of a "heat sink"
"?" Top/middle .. ???This goes to the left hand-side of the "heat sink" and a VERY dodgy splice branch's it to X11
I then have a RED wire of the same Negative
"heat sink" going to X10
I had a quick look at the schematic but quite frankly it baffles me .
Has anyone some pics they could post so i can put the correct wires where they should be ?
Thanks
